This Financial Crisis Will Be 10x Worse Than 2008
by Chris Martenson

The financial crisis now breaking will be ten times worse than 2008. It will need its own name, perhaps the Extremely Great Financial Crisis. Stocks, bonds, commodities, real estate, mortgages, corporate financial outlooks…are all tanking. The dollar is spiking. Layoffs are growing. Markets are imploding. What is going on? We have a liquidity crisis that…

Bond Market Troubles Will Take Away The Fed’s Printing Press

Those cheering today’s sky-high asset prices say they don’t worry because “the Fed has the market’s back”

And they haven’t been wrong to-date. There’s no doubt that the Fed’s $trillions in monetary stimulus has pushed the prices of stocks, bonds, real estate and nearly every other asset class to all-time highs.

But the Fed’s ability to print money with impunity may not last forever. In fact, veteran money manager Bill Fleckenstein warns it could end this year.

The Bull Case For Stocks
 PREVIEW
by Adam Taggart

In the wake of our recent amazing interviews with greats like Jim Rogers, James Grant, Ben Hunt and David Stockman — all of whom express great concern that today’s elevated market prices may undergo a sudden and violent correction — many of you have asked us to bring on a expert to challenge that point of view.

Which we are more than happy to do. To avoid the echo chamber risk, it’s essential to understand the positions of those who draw different interpretations as we do from the same data.

So, what’s the bull case for the markets from here?

Market Update: Too Big To Fall?
 PREVIEW
by Adam Taggart

In 2008 the banks were Too Big To Fail. Here in 2020, the stock market looks Too Big To Fall.

So much of the status quo is now dependent on ever-higher asset prices that any weakness is immediately met with overwhelming support by the central banks and/or national legislatures.

Many are now wondering: will stocks ever be allowed to drop again?

Coronavirus: ‘Nothing To See Here’ Say Markets & The Media

As the Wuhan coronavirus spread worsens, the financial markets are throwing one hell of party, hitting record highs.

Yet the world’s #2 economy, China, just hung up a big “CLOSED” sign — stocks should be tanking hard here.

How can they shrug off the virus’ threat to global trade?

How Will The Coronavirus Impact The Markets?
by Chris Martenson

In addition to presenting a major public health risk, the coronavirus is already doing serious economic damage. China, the world’s second-largest economy, is essentially “closed for business” right now.

The disruption to global trade the coronavirus is likely to cause is going to be material, perhaps severe. And that will have serious negative consequences for the financial markets, which have been (and is still!) trading at the highest valuations in history.

The coronavirus has all the hallmarks of a true Black Swan event.

VIDEO: The Fed’s Evil Juggernaut

The US Federal Reserve is once again force-feeding liquidity into the system. At its fastest rate ever.

The result? Record high stock prices whose valuations defy all logic.

What’s wrong with that? Shouldn’t we just enjoy the party and be grateful for our rising 401ks?

What’s wrong is that the Fed’s actions are dooming us. Their poisonous cocktail of endless cheap money and rock-bottom interest rates is hastening a terminal breakdown of the economy, while deliberately enriching a tiny cadre of elites to the ruin of everyone else.

Bubbles Are Brutal

Asset bubbles are brutal.

The most difficult time to remain centered and focused is during their last stages as everyone around you is going nuts. Logic has been tossed out the window, sentiment is manic, and every narrative – the stories we hear and use to make sense of our world – is thoroughly ungrounded.

A full decade and some $14 Trillion in newly-printed money later, plus the cheapest interest rates in recorded history, and yet the central banks have not been able to restore growth to the global economy. The experiment has failed.

What good is Dow 30,000 if 75% of us can’t afford a house or scrape together $400 in an emergency?

 Prep Now for the Coming Winter Challenges
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the needs and sustainability of our family. We have six young children, our oldest just turned 12 and our youngest just turned 3 months old. I love the considerations that the article had above and thought I would add a few things that I have considered for our situation. My...
